Would have preferred they had drawn the derby but its always nice to see MANCs lose

Good on rafa.

On Mannure and City game. How good were city?! Nice to see them beat mannure.
A draw would have been ideal though.

Strange thing to say Yakka?

What does a goal keeper have to do with winning by a 'substantial margin', as this is purely dependent on how many more goals City could have scored.....

Hilarious reading the hysteria with Bravo in his first game all because he isn't of the 'boot up the park' ilk like the rest of the keepers in the league.

I think commentators have got a soft spot for Hart. Lol thats why they are soo critical of Bravo.

Delighted those Chav pikeys dropped 2 points, especially the prize scumbag Costa. An embarrassment to football....

Sorry mate have to disagree.

City played the way they did because Bravo was disciplined and courageous to not boot it up the ground the whole game. Possession from the back allowed them to destroy united in the 1st half.

Without him they wouldn't have been able to do this in the first place. Something that seems to escaped most of the so called 'experts' in England. Sure he had a breakdown in communication with Stones but other than that and the risky tackle on Rooney the hysteria on his debut was a bit over the top. People expecting him to repeat these mistakes are in gaga land. I have watched him for years now playing for Chile and the man hardly makes a mistake at the back, he is the main reason why they have won 2 international tournaments in the last 2 years. Remind again how many old Joe has won again? 

eds mate no offence but you really have a problem with reading and understanding what other people are actually saying, you pretty much read what you wanted to read. Yakka didn't even try to have a go at Bravo, but he merely stated that his mistake gave United hope and will to fight. Without that hope they would have probably lost with a very embarrassing result.

I don't know what the media in England are saying but the way you're reacting sounds like they're talking some serious bull. For me personally, Bravo is one of the best goalies in the world and City's decision to replace Hart with him must have been a no-brainer. Hart is an above average goalkeeper.

Yep you are right mate, I simply thought that yakka got caught up in the rubbish commentary on the game which pillared Bravo on his debut because of one mistake.

Agree this mistake gave United a sniff, when in reality they looked completely out of it before that fortunate Ibra goal.

The point I was making (which Yakka may or may not know having watched Bravo in the past) is that he won't do that week in week out, so not sure why he was referring to it as "antics" in his post above. Antics in any context means that its a regular thing. Which I pointed out is an odd thing to say?

City will be a much, much stronger side having a goal keeper that has one of the best pass complete percentages on the planet.

Will be interesting to see what tactics Klopp employs when we come up against them.
